Sorry to hear that, but a good age all the same; should offer some comfort...... :) We have the same problem coming to us with an elderly dog and cat, we knew when we got them that we would have to face the inevitable some day, just sadly that 'someday' gets closer and closer..... :(

Just to let you know Phil we are going through the same over here .
Leo , our 15 year old Snow Leopard ,succumbed to the cancer that he has been fighting for over a year . I promised him I'd be there at the end ,and I was holding him as he drifted off to sleep .
A unbelievably difficult thing to do.....
He was a most intellegent ,wonderful and enjoyable companion to us over the 15 years he was with us and his presence  is desperatley  missed in this house .
My old Friend ...........
